We arrived for our first visit to Etang de Planchon on the 23/05/2015 after being greeted at the airport by kiran and Angelo we had a short drive to our accommodation an authentic gite by the side of the lake. A well kept building with all the amenities you could possibly need. A well equipped kitchen spacious accommodation. Comfortable beds, separate toilet and shower room. We opted for a full meal package during our stay and couldn't have wished for better food or hospitality. Kiran and Angelo are amazing people who will go above and beyond to help you with whatever you need.nothing is more important to them than you enjoying your stay with them. The fishing is also excellent 6 new pb in a weeks fishing says it all really for me finishing on a 58lb 6oz mirror. Everything you need is sold on site and kiran and Angelo knowledge of the lake is not to be overlooked. We have really enjoyed our stay here and are looking forward to our return visits.

I really can't fault this accommodation, the log fire on a cold evening kept us toasty, lovely and clean with everything you need for cooking etc, lovely views of the surrounding area, booking again for next may, the owners are happy to help in anyway,and are lovely people, roll on next may.

Excellent gite with all the indoor and outdoor facilities needed for a great holiday. I stayed with my husband whilst he fished the lake however this would suit families or groups of friends who wanted to fish or just get away in France. The gite itself has all the mod cons needed, including sky, wifi, washing machine, dish washer etc, for a easy comfortable stay whilst maintaining its French charm with an open log fire. There are allot of great walks around the area with various cafes to stop off at on your way for a coffee and rest. Kiran and Ange were great hosts who catered for all our needs including transfers to and from the airport. Overall they were very flexible, friendly and accomodating and were key in setting this gite apart from other places we've stayed. We will definatley be returning again very soon and would recommend this holiday to all.

Lovely rustic Gite in a rural area not to far away from a the city of Limoge. It is situated on a lovely (fishing) lake. We booked it for 7 days as a part of our fishing week at the lake. We brought our two dogs with us and they where more then welcome. The Gite has all the things you need, a comfy bed, shower and separate toilet. The kitchen had everything you need: cooker/oven, washing machine, dishwasher and microwave (and all the other "usual" appliances". Kiran and Angelo are the most welcoming and friendly people to be with. Nothing is to much and they have the patience of angles.

The gite at Le Planchon offers lovely, authentic French living with hosts who couldn't be any more helpful and a setting which is simply beautiful. The area has all the local facilities required for a great holiday and the gite offers all the mod cons needed whilst keeping its rustic homely charm. If its raining then stay in and watch sky tv, a dvd or read a book infront of the log burner. If its sunny then have a drink in the oustide dining area or go for a walk around the French countryside. The clean, practical accomodation will meet all needs. Kiran and Angelo are excellent hosts and will go over and above what you'd expect, either Kiran with her excellent cooking and choice in books or Angelo with his fire lighting skills and sense of humour. Whether you are a family, couple or partner of a fisherman, with two years of experience with this gite, I recommend this as a place to stay.

We received a very warm, friendly welcome from the Kiran, the owner, on arrival. Nothing was too much trouble and she was always on hand with plenty of advice on where to go & what to see, but without being intrusive. The kitchen is really well equipped (far better than most holiday cottages I have stayed in) and the supermarket is only a short distance away with everything you need, so cooking wasn't the chore it normally is on holiday! You really get a taste of rural french life here and this place has the best of both worlds. If you want a peaceful, relaxing holiday it is ideal as the setting is tranquil, but there are plenty of places to visit nearby if you like to go out and about. If you do want to explore, the roads are very quiet, but a car is essential. We would definitely stay here again and hope to return next year.

We stayed at this Gite in late Oct, Kiran (the host) was so welcoming and more than accommodating to our needs, we needed both a mid-week and early check in. Also during our stay Kiran was so helpful, on-hand to offer information if needed even meals were available if required. Nothing was too much and we really appreciated it. The Gite itself was lovely, had everything you could need for a short or long stay. Set in the idyllic French countryside, overlooking the lake. It was perfect for a relaxing holiday and we couldn’t have asked for more. The nearby town Chateuponsac, is a lovely quaint place just a short drive away. This really felt like a home from home, a combination of a beautiful setting, lovely Gite, fantastic host and all the amenities you could need. We would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone looking to get away from it all! We’ve already booked in to go again….thanks Kiran!

We spent a most enjoyable and relaxing week at this gite. Anything you might need or want is provided. It is spacious and comfortable. It has a lovely oldy worldy feel with the flagstone floors and beams, but there is every modern convenience available to make your stay easy and comfortable The surrounding grounds with the lake are beautiful. You are made to feel very welcome by the host for whom nothing is too much trouble. I would not hesitate to recommend this cottage unreservedly to anyone thinking of going there.
